Description
A gunshot rings out on a summer night in Wisconsin, changing the lives of two ten-year-old boys forever. Fischer Branson takes action to protect his best friend Dale Breadwin from abuse by his father, and they flee into the woods.
As they build a raft to escape their troubles, the river leads them into greater danger. A group of adults follows, determined to save the boys from the terrors of Ironsford Gorge. The further they go, the wilderness starts to change them in profound ways, revealing both violence and beauty in the natural world.
As they reach the edge of the Gorge, the true nature of their journey becomes clear: no matter where you run, danger will always follow.
